yes ur right but I never said you get your 0.30$ back I meant if you buy in for 5.30$ and if you finish with 1000 chips you get 10$ (double the 5$ you bought in for) + 0.16$ for every 100 chips so you get 11.6 (10+ (10*0.16) = 11.6

overall if you buy in 2 times you bought for 10.60$ and if you cash in one you get 11.6 right
so it's 11.6 - 10.6 = 1$

not wrong..!!! you get 10$ when you cash + 1.6 for the 1k chips = 11.6$ so you get 6.3$(actual win) but the whole amount you get is 11.6 (in it there's the 5.3$) so you take 11.6 = 5.3 (is entry) + 6.3(the money you actually won)

and if you had taken the time to do the math.. you wouldn't have seen it

And for anyone who's reading this post THE MATH IS CORRECT SO DON'T QUESTION IT JUST SEE THE IDEA

‘Fifty50’ is a type of one-table Sit & Go tournament. In a Fifty50 Sit & Go, the event ends when half of the entrants have been eliminated. For example, in a 10-player Fifty50 tournament, 5 will be paid. Half of the prize pool will be distributed equally among the 5 winners, and the other half of the prize pool will be distributed among those same 5 players based on the chip count percentages at the end of the event. The 6th-10th place finishers win nothing. So in a 10-player $10+$1 Fifty50, the prize pool is $100. Each of the final 5 finishers would receive $10 each, plus a percentage of the remaining $50 in the prize pool. You can find Fifty50 tournaments under ‘Sit & Go’ > ‘1-Table’ in the PokerStars lobby.
As a more detailed example, in a $300+$17 tournament with ten entrants, the total prize pool is $3,000. Each player starts with 1,500 chips.
Example Chips Chip % Chip Prize +Buy-in Total Prize
Player 1 4,300 28.67% $430 +$300 $730
Player 2 3,600 24.00% $360 +$300 $660
Player 3 3,100 20.67% $310 +$300 $610
Player 4 2,300 15.33% $230 +$300 $530
Player 5 1,700 11.33% $170 +$300 $470
Total 15,000 100.00% $1,500 +$1,500 $3,000
